Blood pressure during surgery and recovery after Whipple procedure
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial looks at how low blood pressure during a Whipple procedure (pancreaticoduodenectomy) affects lactate levels after surgery, which is a marker of how well your body is recovering. It helps doctors understand how to manage blood pressure to improve outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
